The Queen's Gambit
(2020)

I never thought chess was so epic
Chess games are really exciting, as is the evolution of the protagonist and her conflicts. The color palette, costumes and everything related to aesthetics in this series is brilliant. Like the music. The casting is very good, especially Anya Taylor Joy who shines as Beth. Even if you don't understand any chess, you will understand the whole game thanks to their expressions. With this series she became one of my favorite actresses. In my opinion the only problem I see is that sometimes it gets a bit tedious and predictable.

The Politician
(2019)

It's not a bad series but meh
It has a very good script, ¨ the politician ¨ surprises you all the time with unexpected turns. It even has a very nice photograph and color palette. Accompanied by very good performances especially from Ben Platt (Payton) who has a very good chemistry on scene with David Corenswet (River) With an addition of interesting plots and characters. Reaching the bad part, the series has moments that in my opinion fall into the absurd. Chapter 6 and 7 were a disaster. Jessica Lange's performance reminded me of a play. I found it hard to believe many times that the characters were teen ages. And chapter 8 seemed interesting but unnecessary in this season.

Locke & Key
(2020)

entertaining with a lot of potential but stays there.
With an interesting premise that attracts you to continue watching the series, however, with such a bad and especially silly guide. All the time the characters make silly or forced decisions. With a performance that doesn't help too much (very well portrayed in Chapter 7, the worst in my opinion) It has some very predictable plot twists, but some are specified. In conclusion, it could have been a very good series if we could not script so vague.

Las chicas del cable
(2017)

It is entertaining but has its problems
I consider the "Cable Girls" as an entertaining series. It always leaves you wanting to keep seeing more. It has a great atmosphere that makes me really feel in the 20's. With an interesting but unrealistic plot that falls into the fool, which reduces the seriousness and realism of the plot. In addition to having forced plot twists. His performances do not stand out too much with some exceptions such as that of Concha Velasco, which in my opinion does an excellent job. However, the worst thing about this series is its Soundtrack of modern music that completely disengage with the series
